Quality. Artistry. Elegance. Three attributes we strive to produce in every piece.
Creating one-of-a-kind hand-crafted pieces in Southern Indiana, Diane Krekel Wibbels and Dan Wibbels have a passion for weaving. Their company, Creative Textiles, produces singular products - each individual in all the variations of creating fabric and composing garments and household items. Every piece is hand-loomed without any mechanical assistance and each piece represents a 30 year history of participation in the textile arts.
Creative Textiles produces both garments and household products with the many looms in its studio. Hotmats, placemats, rugs and tablerunners in cotton blends decorate our home and the homes of their customers. Scarves, shawls, ruanas, and wraps top the list of garments produced on their looms. Jackets, such as cocoon jackets, kimono jackets and tunics are second in popularity only to the confetti wraps - classic evening wraps available in a variety of colors.
Diane and Dan show their work at crafts fairs throughout Kentucky and Indiana and culminate their year with a holiday home show at their home studio the weekend before Thanksgiving each year. Their 2018 Home Show will be Friday November 16th from 10am-8pm, Saturday November 17th from 10am-8pm, and Sunday November 19th from noon-5pm . You are welcome to join the Creative Textiles team at their home studio in Clarksville, Indiana, just north of Louisville, KY. Join them for an afternoon of holiday treats and pre-holiday shopping.
